Great service. Delicious French wine. Well trained waiter who was informative and welcoming. The martinis could be better - and we understand that the restaurant will soon receive martini glasses. The location is incredible!

First of all, I would like to mention the friendly staff. Of course, they can help with the choice of dishes - they are well-versed in the menu and wine list. But they can also exchange a few words, cheer up, and - if necessary - transfer to a more cozy vacant table. About the food. The chef's experiments are successful, he constantly adds new dishes to the menu, and takes care of the old ones he likes. At breakfast, these are legendary cheesecakes, from the summer and daytime menu, I liked shrimp with curry and trout with zucchini. It is fresh, original, pleasant both in taste and texture. It is the attention to all these details that distinguishes the Poster and makes it a truly excellent institution.

One of the few establishments in Almaty where there is really good service and really delicious food. We ordered non-alcoholic wine, eggplant salad and seafood pasta in white wine sauce. It's amazingly delicious, great serving. The waiter Daria knows her job: everything is fast, clear!

Very tasty food, an interesting interior and a stunning view of the pedestrian street from the terrace of the second floor. I advise you to go in the morning, when there are fewer guests of the institution.

We were sitting on the terrace on the second floor. The waiters are very helpful and delicate, and they also work very quickly.
We took a salad and a couple of syringes. Not cheap, of course. The check turned out to be 16 k tenge for two.
I want to mention the ADB application separately, it is very cool.
Well done!

To be honest, I'm not thrilled.
My wife ordered three positions, to which the waiter asked, is this just for you? Of course, we smiled and laughed, but in general you need to think about what you are saying to the guests. Despite the fact that the portions there are of course tiny. It is clear that such a concept is all business, but at the same time they are not ideal, although the rest seems to claim to be something more than just a cafe. Tomatoes in the salad are very simple, it could be more interesting to find, sashimi is also not the best in life. The joke with sweet potatoes is all show-offs, everyone pretends that sweet potatoes are delicious. The roast beef was very tasty, the pasta with vongole is also super
But in general, the neighboring Light, unlike the Poster, is always without mistakes

The poster is a cool place, it is very tasty and stylish here. The waiters will always tell you about the dishes from the menu, they will competently recommend them according to tastes. In the evenings at the end of the week it is quite noisy, but fun, it is better to arrange a romantic meeting at breakfast or lunch)

The kitchen is wonderful, new items appear regularly. However, the real problem with white and sparkling wines, or rather with the fact that they will be warm in 90% of your choice. The refrigerator is filled only with what is commercially profitable for the restaurant, and not with what may be interesting to the client

After attending the ballet on Saturday evening, my wife and I decided to visit this institution.
We were greeted very kindly, pleasantly surprised by the presence of a table on the balcony of the second floor without prior reservation.
The atmosphere of old Alma-Ata in the interior of the institution, which is again very pleasant.
The service is not intrusive, polite, the waiter knows all the menu items perfectly and was ready to help with the selection.
I especially want to note that they did not plan to have dinner, but simply ordered tea with dessert, usually in such popular establishments they try to impose main dishes, alcohol, etc., here they were pleased with the absence of such.
Tea is nothing special. Desserts are very decent. I put 5 out of 5 for the service and atmosphere, I definitely plan to visit this place again, this time with a full dinner.

Overall, the place is good. The waiters are going out of their way. But the abr group (including del papa) decided that they would write prices in the menu without VAT, and then additionally include 12% VAT in the receipt. "After all, it is accepted everywhere in Kazakhstan, as you know" (sarcasm)
I don't mind the money, but I didn't expect such a trick in the service.

I came to the restaurant to celebrate a landmark event. At first, I really liked everything, the hostess meeting me, the waiter speaking English. They planted it and immediately offered water, which pleased me. It was also nice to receive a compliment from the chef in the form of a snack with butter. However, then there was a disappointment. Rotti with eel was not at all impressed, as if I was chewing an incomprehensible consistency with a bad combination of flavors. Maybe this is my subjective feeling, and if I were in a different state, maybe I would like it. Well, plus the size is funny, a child's portion :) Tea also loses out on all indicators to other excellent establishments. Dessert (specifically honey cake) turned out to be completely tasteless, the taste of cheap butter is clearly felt, I couldn't even finish eating. And when the bill was brought, it turned out that the originally offered water was provided for money. Well guys, paid water is a bad thing, I'd better go to other places where the water is free. This is clearly endearing. And you didn't even warn me that the water is paid. Although inexpensive, it is still very unpleasant. I don't want to go back anymore:(

I do not know why this place is considered a cult (for example, my wife). But how many times I've been here, I haven't seen anything special. The place is not bad, the interior is good, the food is good, but I think it's a little overrated. The service seems to be normal, but it was like in paradise several times (and this is not a compliment.). The price and quality, in my opinion, were three.

We read the reviews, let's go. We arrive - it is today until 2200 (not outside, but already inside the restaurant there is an announcement about this). Okay, it happens. But most of all, I was amazed at how unfriendly the bartender said that they were closed. Hello, there was no mailing list about this! When I said that, uh, well, it wasn't obvious, he grinned unpleasantly. N- disrespect for people is specific (((

A very beautiful and pretentious place with impeccable service.
The food looks great, but the portions are very small (three dishes are barely enough even for a petite girl) and it does not taste like a masterpiece of gastronomy. I ordered pasta with meat stew and parmesan mousse, so half of this stew turned out to be meat fat. I don't say anything about tea at all — black tea in this institution means one bag of Assam, which does not even color a liter of boiling water, into which it is "thrown". However, the author's cocktails are divine — there is nothing to find fault with.
The service is impeccable and all the disadvantages are trying to do this. The waiters are very attentive and know the menu well, so if anything, they will help you navigate when choosing a dish.
In the end, it turns out that this place is suitable for everyone who plans to just spend the evening with a glass of wine and a cheese plate, but no more. Although, perhaps, this is the essence of such author's restaurants.

Meal.
Lovely eggs benedict: tender pancakes, well-steamed spinach, non-smelly salmon and a well-boiled poached egg. Worthy.
Omelet with pastrami.
The omelet itself is ordinary, too much cheese. Pastrami is interesting, but a little dry. The parmesan mousse, of course, pulls the whole story by the ears.
I really liked the tartar, but only its upper part, which does not reach the bottom of the plate, is the one right under the brushwood. All this is unacceptably greasy if you try to eat it alone.
Sashimi was cooked to the delight of everyone very well - the meat was perfectly combined with sauce and fresh cucumber.
A place, of course, with a claim that can never be realized due to extremely poor service:
1. A self-confident hostess put us at an unsuccessful table. The waiter transferred us for 10 minutes, running from the 2nd floor to the 1st floor to resolve this issue with the hostess. There were 5 of us. They refused to put us at the table where we were last time, explaining that a banquet for 7 people was expected there. As a result, there were 5 people sitting there, having a modest breakfast. Utter disappointment.
Conclusion: discuss table reservations with them in advance - place, floor, position. They won't ask you that and they won't help you. Their hostess function is nominal, purely for wardrobe control.
2. The waiters are too modest, do not know the menu well and mumble to themselves. They can't tell you anything about the position. As a result, you buy a pig in a poke.
That is, the kitchen is working there, and the people in the hall do not even know what they are carrying into the hall on plates!? Well, then why is this all!? Just carrying plates?
The most unpleasant thing was for dessert. We paid the bill, and then attention - BY TRANSFER TO the waiter's PHONE! This is the first time in Almaty that I have not been given a fiscal receipt in a restaurant.
No one even offered to make a payment using the abr application!
For such a total, I can't put you all above 3, even for all the crucifixes in your kitchen.
Of course, your service does not match the kitchen in any way. A complete misunderstanding. Treat your "diseases of the institution with good reviews" now, ina

An excellent restaurant, after reading the comments, it is important to say that in Almaty it is extremely difficult to find a high level of service from hostesses or waiters, but in this institution not everything is so bad.
We were served by Ivan, who has a lot of experience behind him in different parts of the world and it is visible and felt, he perfectly picked up positions on food and got into cocktails!
I highly recommend trying it:
- tomato soup with seafood , it would seem that there can be such a thing , but you will definitely not regret it
- crispy sea bass
- roast beef
- potato dippers
- stewed rib
Cocktail: millionaire, I've been back for it 4 times already))
Viska sour is not recommended, it is being prepared on the red label
